Texas Notice of Entry

This Notice of Entry is built with Texas as the governing state. These are the Texas landlord-tenant rules that most often bear on it, with the statute for each.

Landlord entry & access

No Texas statute sets a notice period for landlord entry — the lease controls. Out-of-state forms often recite a “24-hour rule” as if Texas required it; it doesn’t, but if your lease promises 24 hours’ notice, you are bound by that promise.

What Texas does regulate is lockouts and self-help. A landlord may change the locks for unpaid rent only if the right is in the lease and after advance written notice (5 days by mail or 3 days by hand-delivery or inside-door posting), and must hand over a new key at any hour whether or not the rent is paid (§92.0081). Interrupting a tenant’s utility service is separately restricted (§92.008).
